22 Feb 2017 – Trump revokes Obama guidelines on transgender bathrooms

President Donald Trump’s administration on Wednesday revoked landmark guidance to public schools letting transgender students use the bathroom of their choice, reversing a signature initiative of former Democratic President Barack Obama.

Obama had instructed public schools last May to allow transgender students to use the bathrooms matching their chosen gender identity, threatening to withhold funding for schools that did not comply. Transgender people hailed it as victory for their civil rights.

Trump rescinded those guidelines, even though they had been put on hold by a federal judge, arguing that states and public schools should have the authority to make their own decisions without federal interference.

The goal of this site is to post cited news stories of our current POTUS. With such a controversial figure, it's hard to keep track of everything that happens. This site will track his activities.

Mainly, this site will update Monday, Wednesday, Friday. But if I'm in a position to update it when a story breaks, I will.

I will use a number of sources as long as they have quoted remarks from events that are on record. If you see a site on here that tends to lean a certain way, just know I have personally read it and judged that specific article to be more fact than hyperbole.

If you do not wish to be quoted, have a news story I missed, or have any inquires, send an e-mail to: [email protected]

Also, a few people have asked, and this is the only place you'll see something like this on this site, if you would like to donate to help with server costs, I certainly wont stop you:PayPal
